“BREAKING NEWS: State media say Egypt has agreed to let 2 Iran navy ships through Suez Canal”
Israel ought to have a submarine waiting not far from where they EXIT the canal into the Mediterranean, and — as soon as they are far enough from the exit to be in deeper waters — blow them both out of the water.
Situation resolved.
No. Too obvious. Wait until they just make it to the docks in Syria.
More likely that the naval commandos will attach tracking
devices or command detonated mines to the ships to be activated at a time and place that offers Israel plausible deniability.
At some time in the future the ships will mysteriously
sink due to an unknown internal explosion.
Reports say that the ships are bound for Syria (Latakia or Tartus ports).
“blow them both out of the water.”
How about “silently let gravity be the bitch as they head for the sea floor.”
